The Linux Systems Administration Study Group ('''LSG''') has been created in direct relation to the SF-LUG group and other related Linux events.<br/>

−

A few of us get together to share studying skills for linux system administration and hack on '''any and''' '''all things linux/f.o.s.s.'''.<br/>

+

* Share and practice skills for Linux System Administration and hack on '''any''' and '''all''' things Linux/FOSS.<br/>

−

We have an eye on certification and use the LPIC (2nd Ed, O'Reilly) book and RHCE Study Guide (4th Ed, Exam RH302, Osborne) by Michael Jang

+

* Emphasis is on '''everyone''' being welcome

−

on red hat certification.<br/>

+

* We encourage '''new people of all user levels''' to join in.<br/>

−

Emphasis is on '''everyone''' being welcome, doing first, then learning.<br/>

+

* We also encourage users/hackers/developers of any, and all, operating systems who are interested in Linux.

−

We meet in a classroom reserved @ those times & days listed which has full connectivity via wireless/hardwire and whiteboards.<br/>

+

−

We encourage '''new people of all user levels''' to join in.<br/>

+

−

We also encourage users/hackers of other (or multiple) operating systems who are interested in linux and what they can and will do with it.<br/>

When is this class?

+

When is this study group?

−

On Tuesdays and Fridays from 15:00 to 18:00 and wide open to go as long as people want to hang out and hack.

+

Now on '''Thursdays''' from 15:00 to 17:00

+

+

==Meeting time and location==

+

* We are now meeting in a location offsite from the Space, but in SF, on Thursdays from 15:00-17:00.

+

* We now meeting at <strong>SECRET LOCATION</strong>. email <strong>maestro415@gmail.com</strong> for the coordinates.

+

* For announcements, check out the [https://www.noisebridge.net/wiki/Mailinglist Noisebridge-Discuss list].

−

===Where===

+

==Our Current Focus==

−

At [[Getting Here|Noisebridge]].

+

* We'll be setting up various networking equipment (server,switch, router, gateway, etc.) in two different rooms at the new location (as time provides) as well as starting other study topics.

−

in the Turing classroom.[[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alan_Turing]]

+

* We'll be moving a box with existing server and routing software from one room to another room and connecting it to their network and securing it.

+

* This will be done as it would be in an occupational scenario giving two rooms internet via eth_ and wlan_ (i.e., establishing full connectivity via hardwire/wireless.)

===What===

+

===Past Bash Shell Scripting for Linux Systems Administrators===

−

For discussion, use the SF-LUG mailing list: http://linuxmafia.com/mailman/listinfo/sf-lug

+

In early 2012 the study group focused on shell scripting in Bash. The class was very small, but has grown ever since. [http://www.systemateka.com/mkshscr.sh.html Here is a shell script] that makes shell scripts. Can you explain every detail on every line?

−

For announcements, use the SF-LUG mailing list or the noisebridge-discuss list https://www.noisebridge.net/wiki/Mailinglist

+

The shell scripters were meeting and working through their code on a line by line basis. [http://www.linuxintheshell.org/2012/02/16/entry-000-redirection/ This article] on redirection is a great read as a followup to the past 2012-02-21 meeting.

+

One of the shell scripters put out [http://www.grantbow.com/command_line.html this good meta-guide] for learning the Command Line and for creating more advanced shell scripting in Bash.

+

There are also the most recent [http://www.linuxcommand.org/tlcl.php The Linux Command Line book] and [http://bash.deta.in/abs-guide.pdf Advanced Bash-Scripting Guide v6.6.19] available as PDF downloads as well.

−

Add stuff to this wiki page (or make sub-pages) to describe activities, interests, and resources:

+

[[Category:Linux]]

−

* what's up with the lab machines in the turing classroom at noisebridge?

+

−

* what's a system administrator, anyway? what skills are important?

+

−

* do we want to set up some local system for isos of interesting distros?
